Who will Win IPL 2011-Active Group Discussion

Who will win IPL 2011? As IPL 2011 matches are getting so hot the cricket world is asking only one question. 20-20 matches are unpredictable as no one can say which team would lift this season IPL trophy. But any way there are chances for all teams as there are match winners. Now as we had a hot discussion on the topic 'Will India Win World Cup 2011' yet another topic for group discussion for our members. 'Who will win IPL 2011'.Special cash prizes will be given to the most active participants. So lets start the discussion.

We are not moving from the main topic.The Lack of players will surely affect the ipl 4 tournament.That is we are trying to say.

Chennai super kings are now second last from the last.Dhoni ,the brilliant captain lost the last two matches is a big shock for chennai super kings. He was really shocked by the innings of Brendun macuullam and Rohit sharma. Chennai had a large number of fans in the previous tournament.We can expect some good matches from chennai in the coming matches.

Kochi tuskers batting strength is their openers.If Brenden macuullam and Jayawardane click the match then they can take a good score. Consider if they are falling suddenly in the opening spells.then kochi couldn't come back in that match.Kochi tuskers bowling strength is amazing.i think their bowlers are the best bowlers in the ipl4.

Kolkata knight riders are one of my choice to win ipl4 tournament.but the last two games they lost is very disappointing .They will come back in the coming matches.tehy had good all rounders in their team-Jaques kallis,Sahkib al hasan and Yusuf pathan.we know the strength of these players.if they plays a beautiful innings nobody can break kolkata.

With Regards

Let's not deviate from the main topic. We are not discussing the rights and wrongs of playing for the national team vs. playing for IPL. We are discussing who will win the IPL 4 tournament.

I have become a huge fan of the Kochi Tuskers after seeing their steady progress against the heaveweights. The tuskers are on a rampage looks like it and their last match proved that they can defend as well as they can chase! They were more or less tagged as "underdogs" after their first 2 losses but the way they have got back into the thick of things is admirable. McCallum seems to have flourished as an opener with the captain, erasing his torrid records of previous IPL seasons. The captain is leading from the front with his good knocks and the bowlers are looking more confident now.

Another team which has been quietly playing well is the Kings XI Punjab team. Watch out for them too! Yesterday they made the highest score of the IPL and their bowlers ran through the RR batting lineup with relative ease. Gilchrist seems to have really put together a good team after their first disastrous opening game.

So Sachin and his team had better out! The Kochi Tuskers may just be the ones to make a trumpeting entry into the finals along with the Punjab juggernaut with the leading scorer of the IPL, Paul Valthaty.

The player shouldn't do anything by giving up their country. All men are responsible to work for their country. This is not fair that Pollard refused to play for his country. After all it's all about 20 over match. His country could have proud of him if he give up money and help his playmates to keep her prestige.
After recalling West Indies and Srilankan players, tremendous changes have been occured. Since Pollard refuse to go back his country, they only have to suffer the vacancy of Malinga. Chris Gayle will be in place of Dilshan of RCB. Kochi will have to suffer the loss Jayawardene. Upcoming maches of Kochi are in dilemma.
Just wait and watch the turning points in ipl.

My favourite team Kolkata knight riders lost against kochi tuskers. This was a big match. All credits are given to mahela jayawardane and ravindra jadeja. kolkata knight riders thrown their wickets by chasing a small target.Twnety20 is an unpredictable game till the end of the last ball.

Chris gayle joined the Royal challengers bangalore is a good news for RCB. After srilankan players recall.RCB was in big trouble because they loss tilakaratne dilshan.But return of chris gayle would suitable for dilshan's vacancy.

One of the amazing news is that kieren pollard is not going to play for west indies.He says that he wants to play for mumbai indians. Some players they just want money they doesn't need their country. They doesn't know that what a big mistake they are doing. Every players at beginning wants to play for his country.After playing some matches they fall in some egotism.Now they wants to make money by forgotting his country.


Delhi daredevils performance is very bad in this season.The main reason is they lack some good players . In the previous season they have gautam gambir,dilshan,devilliers,vettori.But in this season they only retained virendar sehwag.All of their gain is they got the all rounder irfan pathan.we cannot expect anything from delhi daredevils.

Happy to see another glorious victory of Tuskers over KKR. A convincing performance from each and every Tuskers. Credits goes to our bowlers and ofcourse batsmen, they really did nicely.
An easy 130 plus run chase made Knight Riders a little bit happy before the first ball from RP Sing. Later they realized that the game is no longer under the control of them.KKR really struggled to face Tuskers.
Through this win they sharpened their Tusk for the chase of ipl championship.
Hope ahead they have great chances.

Hi

IPL has been an unpredictable event from the first edition itself. So this edition. We have two new teams- Kochin Tuskers Kerala and Pune Warriors. Kochin Tuskers and Kerala has showed their abilities in this series. Kochi is the one whos surprised everyone after two back to back loses. But the next three matches were awesome for them. Kochin Tuskers defeated the three most favorites of this edition of IPL.

Similarly, one can's say anything about other teams too. Even Delhi Daredevils, who's at the bottom of the point table have enough potential to come at the top list. And for the second last team- RBC, there's a happy news- Chris Gayle is joining the team!.

The final point table is very very unpredictable. It depends on many things apart from the LUCK. West Indies players and Srilankan palyers will leave their IPL team for the coming ICC series. This will definitely affect many of the teams, especially Kochin Tuskers Kerala whose skipper is Mahela. Mumbai won't have Pollard- a huge lose for them. Similarly, Deccan won't have their skipper after few days in thise edition.

So, even the semi final list is unpredictable in this IPL 2011. My top six favorites are Kochin Tuskers Kerala, Mumbai Indians, Kolkata Knight Riders, Chennai Super Kings, Rajasthan Royalas and Pune Wrriors.

I was the first person to give my prediction in this page and i had predicted Pune as the winners. But seeing the latest matches of KTK i have to change my opinion and say that they have a definite chance to win IPL this time. I'm not saying this just because they won the last 3 matches but because though they lost the first 2 matches in the tournament, they had played extremely well in it and lost it only after giving a very good fight. All their games are a treat to watch since KTK matches are always filled with tension and anxiety till the last ball. I like such matches rather than the matches which can be predicted just after few overs. Let's hope that this power and strength of the team stays even after the exit of Jayawardene. Most of it depends on the next captain chosen for the team and like vandana said, i hope it will be Ganguly.
All said, it is still very difficult to predict who will win the match at this stage because all the teams are playing well. Most of the times, the team which i never expect to win only comes out with flying colours. But i'm sure a lot of impact will take place to all the teams who have sri lankans as their strong players (like Lasinga in mumbai, Jayawardene in KTK as he's the captain and Kumar sangakkara).

Hi friends,
I am a fan of Kochi Tuskers. You are right Ranjith. KTK can never be ignored from the eyes of ipl fans. Their victory against champions CSK make the game very much in their hands. Mumbai Indians are the leader in the score table though their defeat against KTK made them weak.
Amazing partnership of McCullum and Jayawardene is the base of Kochi. It is sure that absence of Jayawardene is a heavy loss. Hope Ganguly will be back with KTK. Vinay kumar is in good form with much power in his arm. It is amazing that both the game were won by runchase with a huge run partnership. They are really Tuskers with very much power in batting, bowling, fielding.
Any way it is difficult to predict the campions since more teams are there in field with full charge.

Yes vandana,Ganguly can come back for playing kochin tuskers.Kochin tuskers franchise are now discussing this with IPL Governing council.Australian all rounder steve smith is ruled out for this ipl season according to Ankle injry. An ipl franchise can directly transfer the injured player by discussing with IPl governing council. Chennai superkings replaced Englands andrew flintoff by srilankas chamara kapugedara by the similar manner. But the reward getting for ganguly is same as the reward of the replaced player(steve smith).

Hai friends,
As vandana and ranjith said,Kochi Tuskers Kerala have once again proved that they ready to lock the horns against any team in the tournament by showing their strength against tough competitors like CSK and MI.They learnt from their mistakes and kept their nerves throughout both the matches.
Best part of this IPL is that not even single team have won all of their matches and have won at least one match. Terrific efforts from the teams like Delhi dare devils,Kings eleven punjab to chase down 180 plus target were a treat to the eyes.The advantage we saw for the teams who won toss and elected to field first have opened up the general mind set required for the players to achieve success in this format.Batting second gets you the target,so that you can plan and play for 20 overs which will be favorable to all sides in IPL as all teams have strong batting sides.
Lets hope that this wont make captains to spend more time on coins than their cricket kit!!!!!!!!

Yes, Ranjith, you are right. The Kochi Tuskers are very much in the reckoning! They played really well against the CSK team yesterday - despite the rains curtailing their overs to 15. The batsmen are doing amazingly well and I think the bowlers are not too bad either. Vinay Kumar seems to be doing a fairly good job.

There is a rumour that if Jayawardene is forced to return home for the series against England, the Kochi team will ask for Ganguly. Wow! I think it would be just great to have Dada playing again. He may not have flourished as a captain in the IPL but as a national team captain he was really good and it is unfortunate that KKR never get him a second chance to show his mettle.

You never know - the new teams, Kochi Tuskers & Pune Warriors, may yet surprise everybody by reaching the finals! This time, the format of the IPL 4 season is different. The first 4 in the rankings will compete in the playoffs and the winners of each pair will face off in the final. No in-between rounds to drag on the tournament. So it's still anybody's game.

We can't ignore Kochi tuskers.Kochi now beat Mumbai indians and Chennai super kings.They had big hitters.Their opening pairs brendun maccullam and mahela jayawardane both are very amazing with opening wicket.They made good partnerships in the past matches.

Srilankan cricket board recall their players for the coming series against England. This decision of srilankan board affect the IPL tournament.Malinka,the key bowler of mumbai indians will lost after may 5.this is a big shock for mumbai indians.Similarly Kochi tuskers will lost their captain. This will really affect the team cochi. Sangakkara ,the captain of Deccan chargers will be one of the victim of this recall. Royal challengers banglore will lost thier all rounder tilakaratne dilshan from this ipl.Lack of these players will be very harmful in this tournament.These players have a very good fans in india.

The ipl matches are now becoming very hot.Whatever may be My choice in this ipl is Kolkata knight riders.They can win in this fourth season of IPl.

I think Kochi team isn't going to win many games. Their bowling has no tooth and all the good players are foreigners. Mumbai Indians is the team which I think will win. They already hve Rayudu, Bhajji and Sachin. Then they have Davie and Pollard. Kochi need a spectacular season from Jadeja and their Indian bowlers to have any chance to make the semi. Their team makes no sense, NO INDIAN GAME CHANGERS WHEN YOU HAVE TO PLAY 7 iNDIANS. The Indians they have are bowlers which is the weakest link for the Indian team and you can't play 7 bowlers. Kerala needs to produce more home grown talent like like Hyderabad and Banglore.

Hi

Kolkatha knight riders is the best team in this ipl 2011 season.Thay have good batsmens,Ballers and all rounders too.In this ipl there are 74 matches to go includiong the finals.Kolkatha knight riders have a good captain Gautam gambir.They are now in Group B.Their main key is they have a good allrounder like jaques kallis yusuf pathan and Shakib al hasan.Jaques kallis will defenitely give good start with bat.he can also take some important break threw with his bowling.Yusuf pathan will hit some sixes at last overs.yusuf pathan is a partnership breaker bowler.So he can take some important wickets.Shakib al hasan,the left hand spin bowler who can bowl too quick and got some turn at here. Batsmens cannot play shakib very easily.Their pace bowling department is safe in the hands of Brett lee and balaji.Unadkat is a good left arm medium bowler.Ryan ten doechete is another player who can give his contribution with both of his bowling and batting.

Twenty 20 is unpredictable game until the last bowl.In twenty 20 wicket is not more important.runs are the major part of this game.From viewing batting side, A batsmen only give good preferences to Fours and Sixes instead of a single. From viewing bowling side a bowler wants to make some dot balls in his over.If a bowler who doen't take any wicket but if he give very kess runs(eg 4 overs 15 runs)it is a big succes in twenty 20 game.

In twnety 20 all matches ends with a tight situation.Here all rounders are the best key for a tight match.

The Rajasthan Royals have a great captain, as calm and unruffled as Sachin is for the Mumbai Indians but even better - he is willingly to experiment and shuffle the players. Yes, this shuffling did backfire against the KKR which they lost, but knowing Warne he will have already moved on from that loss and create some more experiments to confuse the pre-planned strategy of the opposing team.

Warne has the ability to bring out the best from his players, as has been proved time & again in previous IPL seasons. Look at this season - Rahul Dravid, contemptuously dismissed by all & sundry as totally incapable of playing in a 20-overs game, has flourished under the leadership of Warne. The "Wall" has become a major block to bowlers of opposing teams! Then there is Ross Taylor and Shane Watson to strengthen the batting. What Warne needs is a good opening batsman and bowlers who can support his own agile spells.

A win today against KKR will surely help increase their confidence to propel the RR team into the next stage.
